Hi, what is the exact color you used here??
I used their Basecoat Clearcoat Urethane. I'll try to post a link, but follow these instructions. Go to
www.tcpglobal.com. Then click on Automotive Paint, then select Auto Color Library. Under Classic (1950-1977) select 1969, then select Plymouth or Dodge. You need to fill in the cells labeled Chip Formula, Manufacturer Paint Code and Exact Color Name. Get this data by scrolling down to the paint chip chart at the bottom of the page.
Plymouth: Chip Formula # =43786, Manufacturer Paint Code = F8, Exact Color Name = Ivy Green Poly
Dodge: Chip Formula # =43786, Manufacturer Paint Code = F8, Exact Color Name = Dark Green Poly
Then Select Urethane Basecoat and click on Update information. The paint is $270 per gallon. This is WAY cheaper than name brand paint. The paint is mixed at 2:1 (2 parts paint to one part reducer), so you get 1.5 gallons to spray per gallon of paint. Their reducer is pretty cheap, so get plenty. If you run out, they recommend only using PPG reducer which costs twice as much as theirs. Please note that I used their KC2020 clear. I mixed it according to their directions and then 10% reducer. The paint and clear both sprayed VERY nicely. I also bought a gallon and a quart of their Epoxy Primer. One gallon for coating the bare metal after stripping, and the quart to use as a sealer just before spraying color. When their epoxy primer is mixed according to instructions with a little reducer added, it is a sealer (this is right in the tech sheet for the primer) It worked well for me. I also bought a quart of their KW901 Wax and grease remover.
If you have any other questions, feel free to PM me.
